Chicken Zosui Recipe (Japanese Rice Soup)

Zosui is a comforting dish made with cooked rice served in a delicious soup flavored with soy sauce or miso. My recipe is made with succulent chicken thigh, crispy chicken skin and umami-rich mushrooms for the ultimate flavour. This will be the best zosui you will ever try!
